How we handle bath re-enamelling in Glasdir

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We’re frequently asked to fix thin, worn enamel in places and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, across basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Landlord and trade work in Glasdir

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Steel that has corroded right through

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths

Repairs by material

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

What affects the price in Glasdir

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
